5/22/10 Found the 3 new machines. Will send scans. But all the pennies except machine # 3 are now $1 each! And they have moved around a bit. I'll try to update locations when I send scans but I was on a Field trip with 5th graders. $1 EACH! This hobby is getting expensive! 4/24/2010 - Machines 4, 5 & 6 have been retired. Coins have been rolled and will soon be available on PennyCollector.com in the store.

3/31/10 was at Chicago Science and Industry Museum. We found 7 penny machines. Some located where you have listed, some not. We collected 28 pennies, but many were very different then the ones you have pictured here. Almost all machines were on the lower level except for the 2 near the gift shop in the Entry Hall.

Machine 1 - Lower Level near Yellow Stairs




Machine 2 - Entry Hall level, outside of "Big Idea Store"




Machine 3 - Lower Level 1, outside Shop Earth store




Retired - Machine 4 - Lower Level 1, next to Kids Stop




Retired - Machine 5 - Lower Level 1, next to Blue Stairs




Retired - Machine 6 - Entry Hall level, outside of "Big Idea Store"




Machine 7 - Lower Level 1, outside hall leading to Henry Crown
